　　Animal Congregation

　　Many types of animals combine the advantages of family association with those

　　conferred by membership in still larger groups. Bees congregate in hives; some fish move

　　in schools; ants gather in mounds; wolves live in packs; deer associate in herds. The main

　　Line advantage of membership in a mass community is the safety that it provides. A large group

　　(5) of prey may be easier for a predator to find at any given point than is a small one, and

　　a predator may think twice before taking on such a group; if a predator does decide to

　　challenge a large group, it may merely encounter a confusing mass of moving bodies and

　　possibly may not succeed in its primary goal.

　　New World Epidemics

　　A huge loss of life resulted from the introduction of Old World diseases into the Americas in the early sixteenth century. The inhabitants of the Americas were separated from Asia, Africa, and Europe by rising oceans following the Ice Ages, and, as a result, they were isolated by means of this watery barrier from numerous virulent epidemic diseases that had developed across the ocean, such as measles, smallpox, pneumonia, and malaria. Pre-Columbian Americans had a relatively disease-free environment but also lacked the antibodies needed to protect them from bacteria and viruses brought to America by European explorers and colonists. A devastating outbreak of disease the strikes for the first time against a completely unprotected population is known as a virgin soil epidemic. Virgin soil epidemics contributed to an unbelievable decline in the population of native inhabitants of the Americas, one that has been estimated at as much as an 80 percent decrease of the native population in the centuries following the arrival of Europeans in the Americas.
